ZESTY GREEK COUSCOUS SALAD
This recipe is on the Near East plain couscous box. I'm certain that most of the couscous flavors would work just as well in this recipe. It's a bit different than the others posted, so I'm adding it to Recipezaar.

This recipe is a modification from the winner of a couscous contest put on by Near East. We left out the green onions. We also used grape tomatoes instead of regular to add flavor. Very good!

Steps:
- For the meatballs: In a large bowl, mix together the lamb, couscous, scallions, garlic, egg, parsley, olive oil, mint, oregano, salt, cumin, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper. Form the mixture into 15 to 16 (2-inch diameter) meatballs.
- For the sauce: Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook until brown on all sides, about 6 minutes. Add the marinara sauce, cinnamon sticks, and ground cinnamon. Bring the sauce to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook, turning occasionally, until the meatballs are cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Discard the cinnamon sticks. Transfer the meatballs and sauce to a large bowl and serve.

GREEK COUSCOUS SALAD
I'm not sure just where I got this recipe, but I've been fixing it for a long, long time, most often with bulgur wheat instead of the couscous. Prep time does not include setting time in the fridge.

Steps:
- Place sun-dried tomatoes in a large bowl, cover with hot water, and let stand 10-15 minutes or until softened.
- Drain well, and coarsely chop.
- Add couscous, cucumber, radishes, parsley, basil, feta, and pine nuts, and toss lightly to combine.
- In a small bowl, whisk lemon juice, vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Set aside for 5 minutes for flavor to develop.
- Slowly add olive oil while continuing to whisk briskly.
- Pour over couscous mixture, and toss to blend.
- Cover, and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
- Taste, and adjust seasonings before serving.
- For some reason, this salad dissipates flavors like you wouldnt believe.
- You will probably need more of most dressing ingredients, especially more lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and pepper; but dont add them into the initial dressing mix.
- Add after the dish has set for a while.
- Variation: Replace couscous with coarse bulgur wheat, preferably#3 (very coarse), available at middle-eastern markets and some specialty food stores.
- To prepare, thoroughly rinse 1 cup bulgur in a strainer under running water.
- Place in a medium bowl, cover with very hot tap water, add 1 Tsp salt, mix thoroughly, and set aside for 30 minutes.
- Drain thoroughly, and use as noted above for couscous.

PARTY-SIZE GREEK COUSCOUS SALAD
I got this from Allrecipes and have served it many times during summer parties and it is always a hit so I posted it for the Zaar World Tour. This is what the original chef says... "If you are tired of the same old potato or macaroni salad and want raves, try this at your next picnic or pot luck! This recipe can be easily adapted depending on the veggies and dressing you use. Salad can be made the night before; however, add dressing just before serving
